No front runners in either party!

Still fairly close in New Hampshire, but it looks as if Hillary will pull it off. She did well with core Democratic constituencies, who turned out in bigger numbers than expected.

Obama’s “no red states or blue states just the United States” message may be better suited to the general election than the primaries.

Actually, Obama and Clinton have similar records. The liberal Americans for Democratic Action rate Clinton at 95 percent, Obama at 97 percent positive.

This sets up the next battle in Nevada, where the primary is Jan. 19. The powerful culinary workers union had been set to endorse Obama, now, all bets are off.

John McCain is the real comeback kid of the night, though.  McCain delegate John Borling is calling me back. He’s at the McCain party in Nashua, NH.

gotta go.
